Like Mother, Like Daughter

by Mrs. BWF on October 25, 2012

I distinctly remembering my oldest child at four years old (now 9) coming up to me with her doll saying, “I’m nursing my baby mommy. She loves my breast milk. It’s chocolate milk.” Ha. Adorable. I just had my 3rd child and she was the first baby I successfully breastfed. She was learning by my example. Here are some mamas who shared their little ones learning to care for their babies.

“Here is a picture of my toddler Lucia (just under 2 years old) breastfeeding her mermaid barbie. It was the first time she had ever done this! She has obviously seen me BF my baby plenty! First she tried breastfeeding the doll from her belly button but then moved it up some to a better spot :)”~Claudia

“This is my 1 1/2 year old daughter Patience. She always has her baby with her and feeds her no matter where we are!!! I love how little ones care for baby dolls the same way they are cared for!” ~Nicole C.

And these 3 I shared {with permission} on Facebook back in May.
